Hadith 47-26

حَدَّثَنا أَحْمَدِ بْنِ زِيادِ بْنِ جَعْفَر الْهَمَذانيّ رَحْمَةُ اللَّه قالَ: حَدَّثَنا عَلِىِّ بْنِ إِبراهِيمِ بْنِ‏عَنْ أَبِيهِ قالَ حَدَّثَني مُحولِ السَجِستانِي قالَ لَمَّا وَرَدَ الْبَرِيدُ بِإِشْخَاصِ الرِّضَا عَلَيْهِ السَّلامُ إِلَى خُرَاسَانَ كُنْتُ أَنَا بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَدَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ لِيُوَدِّعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ‏فَوَدَّعَهُ مِرَاراً كُلَّ ذَلِكَ يَرْجِعُ إِلَى الْقَبْرِ وَيَعْلُو صَوْتُهُ بِالْبُكَاءِ وَالنَّحِيبِ فَتَقَدَّمْتُ إِلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَرَدَّ السَّلامَ وَهَنَّأْتُهُ فَقَالَ زُرْنِي فَإِنِّي أَخْرُجُ مِنْ جِوَارِ جَدِّي‏ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ فَأَمُوتُ فِي غُرْبَةٍ وَأُدْفَنُ فِي جَنْبِ هَارُونَ قَالَ فَخَرَجْتُ مُتَّبِعاً لِطَرِيقِهِ حَتَّى مَاتَ بِطُوسَ وَدُفِنَ إِلَى جَنْبِ هَارُونَ.

Ahmad ibn Ziyad ibn Ja’far al-Hamadani - may God have Mercy upon him - narrated that Ali ibn Ibrahim ibn Hashem quoted on the authority of his father, on the authority of Al-Mokhawal As-Sejestani, “When the agent to take Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) to Khorasan arrived (in Medina), I was in Medina. The Imam (a.s.) entered the mosque to say farewell to God’s Prophet (S). Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) said farewell several times. Each time he (a.s.) asked for permission to leave, took a few steps back, but returned to the shrine and the sound of his crying could be heard. I went to him and greeted him. Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) greeted me back. I congratulated him. He (a.s.) said, “Leave me alone. I will be leaving my grandfather (a.s.) and die in loneliness. I will be buried beside Harun.” I followed Ar-Ridha’ (a.s.) all the way until he (a.s.) reached Khorasan. He died in Toos and was buried beside Harun.”
